    Discover the charm and history of Dirleton Castle, a picturesque medieval fortress nestled in East Lothian, Scotland. This striking ruin, featuring three impressive towers connected by defensive walls, dates back to the 13th century and was once a significant stronghold during medieval border conflicts. Adjacent lies the Dirleton Walled Garden, a beautifully restored Victorian-era garden framed by the remains of castle walls and offering tranquil pathways, colorful flower beds, herbaceous borders, and a peaceful orchard. Interpretive panels guide your journey, revealing stories of siege, noble life, and horticultural tradition within a bucolic coastal landscape.
